There’s not a lot of room for error at that speed.

No need to look to the skies when silent econo subs have penetrated CAGs in excercises. Swedish Gotland and French Le Saphir did and that's old news before the diversity doctrine commandeered the bridge of USN vessels. Granted the USN has studied the solo Gotland especially hard, but a wolf pack of cheap subs....
